Abstract

Recent work on kinetoplast DNA and on CAP‐DNA and Eco RI‐DNA complexes shows that certain sequences cause DNA to be highly bent, and that other sequences bend in response to the sequence‐specific binding of proteins. These results demonstrate that alterations of DNA structure may facilitate gene regulation and DNA packaging.
